Don't forget there is a link to photos associated with this story on my profile page. Sorry this one is so late in the day but it has been a really weekend for me as I have celebrated my father's life at his memorial service yesterday. Thanks to all the ones who have had me and my family in their prayers. All prayers were greatly appreciated! Please enjoy the chapter.

Chapter 14 (2202)

Now that the renaming the ranch issue had been settled we could get to the better portion of the evening. Breaking in the couch.

I groaned and rotated my hips against his erection to get my point across to him that I wanted it right here and right now. "Are you sure?" He whispered against my ear.

I nodded and groaned. "Please, Edward. Now." I begged him as he ran his fingers under the waistband of my pajama pants. "I need you so bad." I pleaded with him needlessly.

He chuckled and dipped his palm down further until he encountered my wet heat and swollen nub causing me to jerk in his arms. 'You are so wet for me, Isabella." He whispered as he slipped a leg between mine to spread me open more for his hand to explore.

I gasped as he quickly and stealthily slid a finger deep inside me. "Come for me, Isabella. Now." He urged as his finger stroked my g-spot harshly and his palm gave me the needed friction against my clit. I felt myself quickly approaching the edge and there was nothing I could do but hang on for dear life and enjoy the ride. And that is what I done.

As I gasped for breath from the amazing orgasm, Edward rolled us both off the couch and laid me chest down against the couch cushions as he stripped my clothes off of my limp body. Once he had us both undressed I had fully regained control of my body and it was aching in craving for his. I wiggled my hips back at him in anticipation. "We don't have anything, baby?" He groaned as he stroked up and down my back.

I shook my head. "It's fine, Edward. I promise. You are my forever." I told him urgently as he stroked his steel member through my soaked folds.

"Here we go, baby. Hold on tight." He told me as he quickly slid all the way into me causing me to arch my back, grip the cushions, and scream out his name.

After he thoroughly loved me on the couch he loved me on the rug in front of the fire. We spent the entire night laying in front of the crackling fire taking turns making each other beg for release.

A knock on the door the next morning sent us scrambling for our clothes and to the bedroom before someone caught us red handed and bare assed. "Hurry!" I hissed at Edward as I tugged my pajama pants up my legs.

"Hello? Open the damn door, it's cold out here! I hear you two in there." Alice screeched as she continued to pound on the door. "I can hear you hopping around in there. Your nieces are getting cold!" She said trying to hurry us up. I looked at Edward in confusion because I didn't think she had found out what the babies were yet.

Edward shrugged and tugged his pajama bottoms up his legs. He had his t-shirt in his hand as he went to the unlock and open the door. "Good morning, Ali!" He said as he stepped aside and let her into the house. "Where's Jasper?" He asked as he looked outside and didn't see him.

"He headed straight to the barn to load the hay onto the buggy. He told me to tell you to bring your asses." She said as she waddle walked on into the kitchen. "Morning, Bella. You are looking awfully red this morning." She smarted as she headed straight to the refrigerator.

"Good morning to you, Alice. Did you guys find out the sexes of the babies already?" I asked since she had spouted of that my 'nieces' were getting cold.

She shook her head. "I just think they are both girls but we will find out soon enough. Your brother needs to talk to you, Bella. Something happened this morning that has him all shook up and it was my sexual prowess either." She told me as she dug out my Lucky Charms and poured herself a huge bowl of them.

"Very funny, Ali!" I called to her as I headed after who had headed to our bedroom to get ready so we could go help Jasper before tending to the horses.

"Join me, Isabella." Edward called from the shower when he heard the bedroom door shut.

Who was I to deny temptation when it was presented to me in the form of a very naked Edward Masen who also happened to be very wet at the moment. Oh wait, I was wet too now that I thought about it. Just not in the same way he was.

I quickly stripped my clothes off and joined him in the shower. Needless to say, Jasper was very annoyed when we walked into the barn hand in hand almost an hour later.

"Is this the way things are going to be from now on? You bitched at me when Alice and I started dating about slacking on my responsibilities." He snapped as he hopped down from the loaded hay buggy. "You know, I could have stayed at home making love to my very pregnant and very horny wife also but I knew we had things to do!" He continued snapping.

I sighed and let go of Edward's hand and made my way to my brother and wrapped my arms around his waist. "I'm sorry, bubba." I whispered into his chest quietly as I squeezed him tightly. "You didn't have to do all of this by yourself. You could have come in the house with Ali."

He shook his head and glared at Edward. There was still a lot of animosity and tension between Jasper and Edward, but they were trying to work on it. Baby steps. "It's not his fault so stop your glaring. Why don't you take Ali home and spend time with her and the babies. Edward and I can handle the feedings this morning." I told him as I looked back at Edward for confirmation.

Edward nodded and headed over to the stable to get the horses tacked up so we could hitch them to the hay buggy since the ground was too mushy for vehicles to get to them without rutting up the fields.

Jasper was immediately contrite. "I'm sorry, Bella, I didn't mean to snap at you. It's been a rough kind of morning." He said as he kissed the top of my head.

I nodded and patted him on the chest. "Alice told me something was bothering you. What is it? You, Ali, and the babies okay?" I asked him concerned about everybody. I could tell something was off but I couldn't figure out what it was but I knew he would either tell me or Alice.

He nodded. "Yeah, they are all fine. It's nothing to do with anybody here. It's Maria." He said quietly.

Maria was Jaspers' psychotic ex-girlfriend who didn't know how to take 'no' for an answer. Last I knew, she was in Texas somewhere shacked up with a big time oil baron. "What does she want this time?" I asked hesitantly.

He hung his head and shook it slightly as if what he was about to say was unbelievably hard. "How bad is it this time?"

He raised his head up. "She's dead." He said quietly.

"So how does that concern you?" I asked him. "Does Alice know about Maria?"

He nodded. "Yes, Alice knows all about Maria and her death doesn't particularly affect me but she has been keeping a big secret from all of us. A very shocking life altering secret. She reminds me of Charlie all over again."

"What is it? You know I hate surprises and secrets, bubba."

He nodded and took a deep breath before spilling his guts. "I have a set of twin daughters that are two years old in Texas." He said so quietly I almost didn't hear him.

"Come again?" I asked him again as I looked out the open door and caught sight of Edward leading the Snickers and White Lightening towards the feed barn where Jasper and I were.

"I have a set of two year old twin daughters in Texas and I have to go get them tomorrow. Alyssa Michelle and Brooklyn Haley. Maria's lawyer called me this morning and told me that she had requested that I be notified of their existence upon her death." He told me angrily. "This is why we haven't heard from her in almost three years! Some fucking redneck oil baron is raising my daughters as his own!" He fumed as he kicked a bale of hay in anger.

"So when are you leaving? Does Maria's friend know you are coming to take the girls? How's Alice taking all of this?" I asked him concerned about how this was effecting my sister.

He nodded. "We are leaving in a few hours. He doesn't have a choice, they are my daughters not his. Alice is handling it like the star trooper that she is." He said softly at the thought of his pregnant wife sitting in my kitchen snacking as we speak.

I nodded. "Anything." I told him just as Edward walked through the wide doors.

"I need you to tell Ma and Pa and also get my house ready for the girls and rearrange things to fit all four of my kids." He said as he fished his wallet out of his back pocket. "Alice and I have decided to put the two babies in the room closest to us and the girls in the other room for right now until we get more rooms added on." He said as he fished out his credit card and handed it to me.

"I don't know how to buy for little girls, Jasper." I told him urgently.

He laughed as Edward looked at me curiously. "Why are you having to buy for little girls, baby?" Edward asked as he hooked the horses up to the buggy.

Jasper sighed and waved me on to tell the story. "Jasper just found out that he has a set of twin daughters in Texas from Maria and is going to get them in the morning to bring them home." I gave him the abbreviated version of all I had been told. "Speaking of," I turned back to Jasper ", when are you guys going to be back home? Are you going to be back in time or Christmas?" I asked him as I pocketed the credit cards since Christmas was next weekend. I didn't have to explain who Maria was to Edward, he knew all about her and her crazy antics.

"No later than next Wednesday because Alice has another doctors' appointment that day and we are hoping to get the girls checked out that day." He explained. I knew it wouldn't be as simple as going down there, picking them up, and coming back home. There would be legalities and paperwork involved in everything.

I nodded. "Okay, so that gives me a little over a week to get everything organized and stuff. You guys WILL be home just in time for Christmas. I just know it." I told him as I hugged him tightly before releasing him so he could go get his wife. "Good luck, Jasper, I love you." I told him as I kissed him on the cheek before climbing on the buggy beside Edward. "Give my nieces, all four of them, a huge and kiss from BB!" I called over my shoulder as Edward guided the horses out of the hay barn and out into the bitter winter wind.

"So, I wander how Alice is taking all of this?" Edward asked as we sat out bales of hay for the cows.

I shrugged my shoulders. "He says she handling like the trooper she is but I'm concerned about the babies. All four of them, but really this is typical Maria behavior if you ask me." I told him as I sat the last bale for this area out and dusted off my hands.

He nodded and held out his hand to help me back up into the buggy. "That it is. So, why don't you, Esme, and Rosalie head to Cheyenne and pick out some bedroom suits for the little girls." He suggested as he guided the horses to the next set out area.

I just looked at him. "And just what did you plan on doing for your new nieces?" I asked with a quirked eyebrow.

He just laughed. "All of us guys will clear out the room, paint the walls, and miss all of you ladies." He said with a sweet smile on his face.

I shook my head but sighed in resignation because it really was a good plan. "Sounds like a plan, Romeo. Let's get this done so we invite the others over for dinner and tell them all the good news." I told him as I leaned into his side soaking up some body warmth.

He nodded and we spent the rest of the morning tending to animals and setting the plan into motion.

Quite a turn of events, huh?

Review and let me know what you guys think!
